Please contact the Graduate Office for additional information.

EDUC 5010 Graduate Study Seminar, FALL 2008:

• THREE sessions are scheduled; students need to attend only ONE of the three sessions.

• The seminar is required of ALL graduate students during the 10th hour of their graduate work. Each session begins at 9:00 AM and concludes at 12:00 PM (or thereabouts).

• M.C.P. STUDENTS will attend the first half of the session; M.ED. students will attend the entire session (they will develop their graduate portfolios during the second half of the session).

• M.ED. students MUST purchase a LiveText account in the NWOSU bookstore prior to the session; the LiveText system houses the graduate portfolios.

• M.C.P. students do NOT need to purchase a LiveText account; they have NO portfolio requirement.

• There is no additional text required. Students will receive a handout with all the necessary information.

Sessions are scheduled as follows:

• August 16, Alva campus, EC 101 - key number is A386

• August 23, Enid campus, Lab (TBA) - key number is E956

The "Graduate Advisory Committee Membership Grid" is available for students and advisors. (PDF document, 1 page)

2008-2009 Graduate Catalog is now online. As soon as additional information is available, the catalog will be updated with the '08-'09 roster of members of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the Regional University System of Oklahoma, the graduate faculty, and an update of tuition and fees.

Unfortunately, a few errors made their way into the printed catalog; they have been corrected as they have been discovered; you should consider that the online catalog is the "corrected copy."

As a result of the "Oklahoma Creativity Project" statewide initiative (officially launched February 8, 2008), we will maintain a web page titled "Resources for Creativity and Innovation in Education."

Email Contact: Graduate students should activate their '@rangers.nwosu.edu' Email accounts as quickly as possible. Email is our primary means of contact with students. We do not have the capability to maintain address lists of non-NWOSU accounts.
